I’ve added a new video categoryCategory The 'category' taxonomy lets you group posts / content together that share a common bond. Categories are pre-defined and broad ranging. called WordPress MeetupMeetup All local/regional gatherings that are officially a part of the WordPress world but are not WordCamps are organized through https://www.meetup.com/. A meetup is typically a chance for local WordPress users to get together and share new ideas and seek help from one another. Searching for ‘WordPress’ on meetup.com will help you find options in your area. to help us classify meetup-related submissions. Possibly this could be used to help us create a Meetups tab on the site when we get enough videos.

So, when moderating any meetup content, please add the following categories:

WordPress Meetup
Year (2013, for example)
City Name

For everything else you think needs to be added, please use tags.

Thanks!
